Here's a look at what happened this week, and what's coming up next week, in Dropzone community events!
First off, we want to give a big "THANK YOU!" to everyone who helped make the Girls Who Code charity event a success: we raised over our goal of $2,000, the proceeds of which will go towards computer science summer programs and after-school clubs for young women. Give yourselves a pat on the back, Commanders!
